One blade, drawn as technical linework at real shakehand proportions. The laminated edge along the crown and right rim exposes every ply boundary in the stack. Edge depth is illustrative because physical veneer thickness is not published.

Stack order — face A to face B
- 01AyousOuter ply
Very light medial or core wood — keeps the blade low in weight and widens the sweet spot.
- 02ArylateFibre layer
Pure arylate (Kevlar-type) fibre — damps vibration and softens the impact without much added stiffness.
- 03Kiri — coreCore
Paulownia core — extremely light, damping the stack and slowing the blade down for control.

About this blade
Butterfly Keyshot Light is a 5-ply blade built around Arylate fibre placed outer, with Ayous on the playing surface and a Kiri core. Ayous in the outer layer: Very light medial or core wood — keeps the blade low in weight and widens the sweet spot. Kiri in the core: Paulownia core — extremely light, damping the stack and slowing the blade down for control. Arylate in the fibre layer: Pure arylate (Kevlar-type) fibre — damps vibration and softens the impact without much added stiffness. Physically it measures 6.9 mm thick, around 89 g. Butterfly positions it for off play.
TTDNA ratings

Construction
Material properties
Playing profile
A TTDNA blade rating measures how much of the named characteristic a blade has. For descriptive rows — flex, stiffness, vibration, head heaviness, weight, thickness, carbon feel, softness, technique requirement, spin sensitivity — a higher number means more, not better.
TTDNA ratings are normalized comparison values, not laboratory measurements. They are built from published specifications, technical sources and structured product evidence, converted to one 0–100 scale. Where a directly comparable measurement is unavailable, the value is an evidence-based estimate. Overall-style scores are composites of several characteristics. Methodology
